I have a 1998 xsara sx 1.6I. Over the past 2 or 3 months, ive noticed that both driver and passenger footwells are getting a nice coating oil oily feeling stuff. should i be concerened, or is this a quick fix? :rolleyes: :unsure:

surpise surprise this is the same problem im having on my 1998 xsara sx. any ideas, please send me a message

ive just started having the same problem. when the blower aint working, can you still feel the heat from it, and can you smell anything from it? ive been told that this looks like the brushes on the blower motor are most likely pitted and the gap is now just too big for a constant supply to it. any1 got any other ideas?

I had a very similar thing. the usual STOP and warning noises, but it didnt really give me the chance to stop somewhere, the engine just cut out completely and rolled to a stop, Restarted the engine and it went fine for a couple of days. turned out that the rear brake cylinder was pissing out brake fluid and thats why it was telling me to stop
